Hello friends, I am running Samba 3.0 on RHEL4 server. Around 200 roaming profiles are also configured and they login to XP machines. Things are working for us except in network rollout scenarios. We dont know how to roll out patches or some global changes to all the profiles. We have to visit each and every profile (loggin each of them) to do even the small changes. Today we have to map a

when I try to log on in my samba+ldap pdc sometimes Xp tells me that it doesn't find "the network path to the profile" but I can see all the shares including my profiles if I browse it after loggin in. The drawback is that I can login but my profile isn't updated. Is this a common issue, do you have any advices? Thanks -- Guglielmo Dapavo

Hi all! I have a problem and I can't seem to figure out what is causing it. Because of this I think it's important to tell the whole story... One of my clients has a small office network, where these used to be a Samba 2.x.x server using smbpasswd acting as PDC. A few month ago I installed a new server with samba 3.0.9 (now upgraded to 3.0.10) and OpenLDAP for authentication (as

Hello, I need some understanding about when being as user in a domain group and log on to a windows machine as user that belongs to this group having administrative rights. I will explain in more detail and give some more information: # net getlocalsid > SID for domain FILESERVER is: S-1-5-21-4166838278-3543217259-2095403906 # net getlocalsid <domain> > SID for domain <domain>

A summary of my problem, I had wrong UIDs for a user (eg pmal) between the /etc/passwd file and the smbpasswd file. When I was trying to loggin from a couple of machines running either win nt or win 98 I was reading in the log files that the loggin could not be completed because the UID were wrong but there were instances were I could loggin from another computer with the same username. I really

Hello, now I still have a problem with my Samba installation. Userprofiles don't work under W2K SP4. They work fine with Windows NT 4. When loggin on for the first time the user profile directory is created. After loggin off however no data is written to the profile directory on the Samba PDC. My smb.conf looks like this: =====> # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 192.168.0.1

Hi all, I am currently fighting with roaming user profiles which shall be stored on an Ubuntu 8.04 Xeon (64 bit) box. I'm running the stock Ubuntu packages (version 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.4).

Hello; I have a problem with voicemail and my asterisk 1.2.1 on a OS X Mac Pro intel box.

I'm having a problem with Roaming profiles in Windows XP with Samba as PDC. I've googled and trolled the mailing lists and read the Samba documentation. Problem: User logs onto domain from WinXP client and profile is downloaded (you can tell because it takes a long time and lights on hub are lit up). However, unless that user is in the admin group locally, all/some of the profile
